Hold Me - Edward Scissorhands Card

Just dropping in to share this card I made yesterday. I absolutely love how it turned out. This card was fast fun and easy to make. 

Supply List: 

• Cricut Explore 
• Stampin' Up! Cardstock-Whisper White 
• Pre-made Card Base 
• DCWV Mat Stack- The Rockstar
• Stampin' Up Designer Series Paper Stack-Stacked With Love
• Tim Holtz- ChitChat Stickers 
• Spectrum Noir- BGR3 & BGR1
• Sequin from Stampin' Up!,Virginia Turtle, & my stash
• Tim Holtz Distress Ink- Black Soot 
• Black with White Dot Washi Tape 
• Stampin' Up!- Stampin' Dimensionals
• Wink Of Stella Pen - Silver 
• TheOctopodeFactory-Edward Scissorhands Digital Stamp 
• ATC Gun 

         
    I converted the Edward Digi in Inkscape so that I could add a  base and cut it out with my Cricut Explore. I love the crisp clean cut around the edges.  I then pulled out my Spectrum Noirs to color my image. I set it aside and worked on the card base.

For the background, all I did was add a few scraps how I figure looked good.  Just play around with it before you adhering it down. I then inked the edges with Black Soot Distress Ink.  I adhered it all down with my ATG gun.

                                                                                                                                                                 I put down a small piece of washi tape to ground Edward. I added Edward onto the card with Stampin' Dimensionals. I used "Hold Me" because it is my favorite scene in the movie Edward Scissorhands. (Link Below)  To finish off the card I embellished with sequin and  Wink of Stella here and there. 

I really hope you all enjoyed my card, I was inspired not only by the movie Edward Scissorhands but, also by an amazing artist on YouTube, Serena Bee.  I love her style of crafting, she is such an inspiration to me.  Please check her out she is wicked awesome!

ScrappyDew Design Team Projects, So far...

This card was made with Graphic 45 - Song Bird papers.
I used The SD-Scrap Factory with the Royals 2 Expansion pack.  The eyes are done with SD - Dew Drops Facial Expressions.    The stamped sentiment is from a Stampin" Up! stamp set.

 This wasn't really a Design Team project. I made him mainly to show the versatility of the Facial Expression-Dew Drop Stamp Sets. This is a Bear from Teddy Bear Parade Cricut Cartridge. I just hid the eyes and stamped them on.

This was a really easy simple project. I made the bag, then just added a head from a doll I cut out at the wrong size. then i used the Facial Expressions-Dew Drops Stamps to add her face. With a little highlight and bling for earrings it looks like it tooks awhile to make but was only about 15 minutes.















This was also just to show that you can use these Dew Drops  on Cricut cuts as well as ScrappyDew patterns. This little guy is from Create A Friend. I really love the versatility of these stamps.
